Spanish Summary:
- Spin-off
La octava temporada de El abogado (The Practice), especialmente sus episodios finales, sirvió para presentar los nuevos personajes de Crane, Poole & Schmidt, el bufete de abogados de la serie Boston Legal. Esta presentación comienza cuando en El abogado los socios fundadores Eugene Young (Steve Harris) y Jimmy Berluti (Michael Badalucco), de la firma Young, Frutt & Berluti, deciden despedir a Alan Shore sin consultar a Ellenor Frutt (Camryn Manheim), su gran amiga. A pesar de que Shore le había conseguido al bufete ganancias por más de seis millones de dólares, le dieron una compensación de sólo quince mil.
- Boston Legal
Después de terminar con El abogado, Alan Shore es contratado por Crane, Poole & Schmidt, al caerle bien a uno de sus socios Denny Crane. En esta serie, se narran las aventuras de una de las firmas más prestigiosas de Boston, donde los abogados protagonistas son ricos, tienen sólidas carreras y buscan siempre su beneficio a costa de casi cualquier cosa.
La serie pivota alrededor de tres actores principales: William Shatner (Denny Crane), James Spader (Alan Shore) y Candice Bergen (Shirley Schmidt). Los dos primeros actúan como pareja protagonista, Denny Crane y Alan Shore: las estrellas del bufete. Denny Crane es una leyenda en el mundo del Derecho, ultraconservador, mujeriego y aquejado de un principio de alzheimer,2 presente en toda la trama. Alan Shore es más joven y más arrogante. Con respecto a Shirley Schmidt es la que pone el punto de cordura,2 aunque en ocasiones sea arrastrada al abismo por los dos.
